02 — AI/Agent Review State (Workstream A)

Design

AI review cannot be stored in approval_requests.status (locked by CHECK + lifecycle trigger) and must not be stored in apr_approvals (birth trigger + would pollute the quorum vote count). It therefore lives in a dedicated, birth-free table:

process_axis_ai_review (
  subject_kind, subject_code, apr_id,
  review_state ∈ {AI_REVIEW_PENDING, AI_REVIEWED_PASS, AI_REVIEWED_FAIL,
                  NEEDS_MORE_EVIDENCE, AI_REVIEW_STALE},
  evidence jsonb, gate_status jsonb, risk_level, irreversible_warning,
  recommended_action, delegation_allowed, delegated_action_ceiling,
  reviewer, rationale, evidence_hash, ...)

Review is written before any owner or delegated approval. evidence_hash supports AI_REVIEW_STALE detection (re-review when underlying evidence changes).

Verdicts (live in v_process_axis_ai_review_status)

subject	review_state	recommended action	president?	delegatable?
PROC-OWN-01 assign_axis_owner / AX-PROCESS	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	APPROVE_OWNER_ASSIGNMENT	yes	no
PROC-OWN-02 register_axis canon + PIV	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	APPROVE_BIRTH_ADMISSION	yes	no
PROC-OWN-03 job:cut register+owner+birth	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	APPROVE_BIRTH_ADMISSION	yes	no
PROC-OWN-04 dot:kg owner + 10-split	NEEDS_MORE_EVIDENCE	APPROVE_OWNER_ASSIGNMENT (owner ok; birth deferred)	yes	no
PROC-OWN-05 activate 7 process.* events	AI_REVIEWED_PASS (activate after first birth)	EXECUTE_GUARDED_ACTION	yes	no
candidate job:cut	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	CONFIRM_AS_PROCESS	no	yes
candidate dot:kg	NEEDS_MORE_EVIDENCE	REQUEST_MORE_EVIDENCE	no	yes
axis AX-PROCESS	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	SEND_TO_GOVERNANCE	no	no
pivot PIV-340..353	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	SEND_TO_GOVERNANCE	no	no
event process.*	AI_REVIEWED_PASS	EXECUTE_GUARDED_ACTION	yes	no

Result: ai_pass = 8, needs_evidence = 2, fail = 0. No owner action lacks an AI review.

Why dot:kg is NEEDS_MORE_EVIDENCE (not PASS)

dot:kg has only a correlated dry-run; REAL_RUN = 0; it is not in verified_candidates_v3. Owner assignment and split authorization are ready, but birthing the 10 split processes must wait for a REAL_RUN ladder. We did not fake verified.

Each verdict carries

evidence list · per-gate gate_status · risk level · irreversible birth/canon warning · recommended action · whether delegation is allowed and to what ceiling.
